Question

Will give out medals.

Answer 1

Stacy has some roses. She has 5 more pink roses than red roses. She has twice as many yellow roses as pink roses. She has 8 red roses. How many roses does Stacy have altogether?

Student's solution: Work backwards
Stacy has 8 red roses.
She has 5 more pink roses than red roses (8 + 5 = 13).
She has twice as many yellow roses as pink roses (13 × 2 = 26).
So Stacy has 8 +13 + 26 or 47 roses.

Donna has some notebooks. She has 4 more blue notebooks than green notebooks. She has 3 times as many black notebooks as blue notebooks. She has 6 green notebooks. How many notebooks does Donna have altogether?

Answer 2

Donna has 6 green notebooks
She has 4 more blue than red (6 + 4 = 10)
She has 3 times as many black notebooks as blue notebooks(10 x 3 = 30)
So Donna has 6 + 10 + 30 = 46 notebooks
